someone at - it time for this one? gradient Photoshop 2014 does not.

Working on a project with photoshop 2014 update Thursday night using foreground to transparent gradient. The edges of the image are white instead of transparent on the background or other pictures. I thought I used the gradient correctly convert the image to a png file, affecting the mask and then apply the gradient at the edges. Is there something that I am missing? Help, please.

A few thoughts:

(1) not to mention that the layer of background in your first screenshot above there is not other layers. The black gradient is set in the image.

(2) in your final screenshot (the one you wrote about) your layers are locked. You should get an error message when you try to double click on the layer, which you can apply layer effects.

to unlock click the padlock beside where it says "Lock."

(3) you can get the effect of the background fade using layer masks...

(a) create a selection around the part of the image where you want the 'fade' gradient to be (for example, using the Rectangle tool)

(b) click on the mask icon to create a layer mask showing only the selected part

(c) click on the layer mask to make "active".

(d) apply a blur filter to the mask, it can be a simple Gaussian blur or blur of the box. The dimensions in pixels of your image and abrupt how you want the gradient to be will depend on the amount you use

Alternatively you can feather the selection before creating the layer mask to produce the gradient. In this case the blur filter is not necessary.

The image will fade then transparency and you can see everything that is in the background behind her.

Hope this helps,

Mike

  • 5.5 for the Actions of Photoshop CC does not properly

    I have a set custom actions that I used in 5.5 I loaded to CC 2015. The actions do not run properly. The simplest of actions such as turn left and right used to run automatically with a click of a button. Stocks now stop on each step. I checked and they all get to run fast. Tried to rebuild the simple actions first, I'm running into the same problem when starting from scratch. I also tried delete and add actions, but have the same problem. Help solve this problem is appreciated. The problem is on my laptop, Macbook Pro and my iMac 10.10.5.  Thank you.

    It sounds like formerly, you click on the box on the left of an action or action set you either has not paid attention to the warning that all dialog boxes action steps would turn on and be interactive.  This cannot be undone. Or at some point, you turn off this warning message.

    Drag the action defined in the action palette to the Palette of Action trash to unload. Then load all of the action.

  • I'm looking for a link to XP SP1 does not require a network connection to install

    I'm looking for a link to XP SP1 does not require a network connection to install

    Were you recently doing a Clean Install? I ask because you are implying in your installation of Windows XP is in 'gold' or SP0 (i.e., pre - SP1) level. Well sure, automatic updates will not work!
    You can use this path to level – says in passing:
    Gold XP to XP SP2 to XP SP3.
    Note that installing SP1a is TOTALLY USELESS!
    Here are the detailed instructions:

    1. download the installation of SP2, SP3 and IE8 files. I prefer to keep these on a USB key, but this is optional. Here are the links to all the installation of three files:

    http://www.Microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?ID=28 (for SP2)

    http://www.Microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?ID=24 (for SP3)

    http://www.Microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?displaylang=en&ID=43 (for IE8)

    And if you wish, download the Setup file of a good anti-virus program. I recommend Avira free Antivirus:

    http://www.Avira.com/en/Avira-free-antivirus

    2. disconnect Internet.

    3. temporarily disable the automatic updates.

    4. install SP2. Restart twice.

    5 install the SP3. Restart twice.

    6 switch to IE8. Restart twice.

    7 install an Antivirus software.

    (What happens very often is that someone has their software antivirus running as they try to install SP3, which often translates into chaos! "This is why it must be done after installing SP3 and IE).

    8 make sure that firewall Windows is activated (it should be).

    (Now you can physically reconnect to the Internet.)

    9 visit Windows Update to download and install only the critical security updates.

    10 re - enable automatic updates.

    After the back if you need guidance.

    Keep in mind that WordPerfect 7 is a very old version - eight versions. Usually very old versions of almost any program do not work on newer versions of Windows. I don't know about you, but I suspect that you must upgrade to a newer version of WordPerfect.
